Rock ‘n’ Roll DC Half Marathon

Comments 0 Comment
My first Half Marathon for the 2017 year and probably one of the coldest half marathons I’ve ever run! This was my second time running the Rock n’ Roll DC Half Marathon and I enjoyed last year’s race so I came back again this year! Packet Pick up was located at the same location at the DC Armory. I did not stay very long and briefly walked through everywhere. I was eager to get back home to make sure I…

My first Questival race located in Durham, North Carolina! This was my first time visiting the Triangle region of North Carolina and I had so much fun exploring the area running around all over town as part of Cotopaxi’s Questival: 24 hours, 240+ challenges, 6 secret challenges, and lots and lots of silly videos and pictures. This was definitely a great team bonding race and I had so much fun doing the most random task trying to get as many…

The First ever US Spartan Winter Sprint! and boy was it a cold one!! I could not believe that Spartan decided to do a Winter race and I am glad I was able to participate in the first winter event! This race took place on March 4th at the Greek Peak Mountain Resort in upstate New York, located near Cortland. I carpooled with friends the day prior and finally learned the definition of a ‘snow squall’. You don’t see these very…

Savage Race Maryland! An OCR (obstacle course race) unlike any other race I’ve done! I have grown to love OCR’s and wanted to branch out to see what other obstacle course races had to offer. I had just recently placed as 4th overall female in the DC Spartan Sprint competitive division and was eager to compete in another OCR! A friend told me about Savage Race so I signed up for the pro division. Savage Race features 25+ obstacles with…

My second year running the Massive Medal Half Marathon! Last year’s race went really well and as a huge medal fanatic, I just had to come back for another massive medal! This time I signed up for the Captains Challenge which is running the Massive Medal Half Marathon and then the CNU Alumni 5k for a whopping 16.2 miles! It was very frigid out that morning. This was my first race this year that I ever ran in long sleeves and I…

Virginia Beach it’s good to be back! It has been a yearly tradition to have this race during Labor day weekend. I ran the Rock ‘N’ Roll Virginia Beach Half Marathon last year and was so frustrated that this race put me in crutches, so I made it a goal to come back this year injury free! (and thankfully I did just that!) I had just run the DC Spartan Sprint the weekend prior which was one of my best…

My second time running a Ragnar Trail race! I originally was not planning on doing this race, but there were a few last minute drop outs and I was offered a spot on a team so I joined! I had a really good time running Ragnar Trail Richmond back in April so I was excited to see what West Virginia had in store for us! Let me reiterate a little from my last Ragnar post for those who have not…
